キレイな部屋でした。 1階のレンタカー屋と一緒のチェクインカウンター、2階がチェックアウトカウンターなので注意です。泊まった部屋はベッドサイドにコンセントが無かったので寝そべりながらスマホいじりは出来ません。予約の際に喫煙、禁煙の記述が無かったので問い合わせたら予約は喫煙部屋だが禁煙部屋が空いているので変更可能とのことで変更してもらえました。2階に懐かしのマンガがズラリと並んでいたので、部屋に閉じこもって読み耽るのも良いかも？

とりあえず泊まるだけ、という感覚で。

ホテルとしては古いです。綺麗ではありますが、アメニティは充実していません。最低限のシャンプー、リンス、ハンドソープ、歯ブラシ。日本茶のティーパックのところに綿棒があり、ドライヤーはありました。スタッフさんはもんだいありませんでした。とりあえず泊まるだけという考え方でご予約されるよ良いと思います。駐車場は、ホテルには無いので、道路を挟んで目の前の500円パーキングでした。近くにセブンイレブンがありました。

A nice hotel for a good price!

The hotel is centrally located in Hikone. The staff were amazing and so accommodating. A good breakfast came with the room. Free bike rental (just a deposit while you have the bike). Room was clean as well.

駅から近い。そして彦根城にも歩いて行ける。琵琶湖の東エリアを旅行する拠点として大変便利でした. 部屋はシンプルなシングルルームを利用しましたが、衛生的で何一つ問題はありませんでした。 彦根駅のそばということで、食事にも困りません。一人旅、出張などに最適かと思います。

Straightforward and inexpensive

This is a typical Japanese small business hotel. Room and bathroom are, therefore, also small. The room has a fridge, tea maker, and large flat-screen TV. The complex is clean. Front desk is well attended and friendly. Limited English is spoken. And I had no problems communicating. Several small restaurants close by. Groceries can be bought across the corner in a tiny mall. Hikone Castle is a 10 minute walk towards Lake Biwa. Commuting to nearby firms for business is easy via train. There are coin-operated washers and dryers in the first floor utility room.

部屋の設備について

以前宿泊した際は、アンドロイド用充電器が部屋に備え付けてありました。 しかし、今回宿泊した部屋にはなく、それをあてにして充電器を持っていかなかったので、 無いことに気付いたときはショックでした。 もしかしたら、部屋のグレードが違ったのかもしれませんが・・・。（今回は1500円程度安かったです）

Enjoy a quiet night there , not bad

Hikone is a very small place anyway, some people who comments this hotel was good and 7 minutes from JR train station, true but also want to tell all hotels around are from 5 to 10 minutes. Not a complaint but if because of this to comment hotel location is good is not very reasonable. Anyway, the only two complaints were : No lift when you check in, you need to carry your big luggage walked up stairs. (indeed there is lift for check out and pay attention to walk up and tell hotel staff to open the lift for your check in). And hotel staff will call you definately to remind you your check out time is 10am even it's just 10:10am. Except these, nothing big to complain. One thing good is you dont see any individual traveler from the Mainland China nor HOng Kong (except myself) travelling alone in this city (except travel tour) so why not to go there for a day to enjoy a quiet night rather to hear noisy Mainland Chinese people like in Kyoto.
